Do you wrap all your christmas gifts to people yourself, or do you pay to have them wrapped at the store, or do you skip the wrapping all together and just buy a gift bag to put it in??? Personally i wrap all mine myself ( and i hate it) since it costs to much to have them wrapped, a few items i may put into the gift bags but for the most part i just wrap. How about you?

I wrap them myself. I don't want to waste $$ having it done. I enjoy wrapping anyways.

I wrap my own presents. I love to be able to mix and match the wrapping paper. They don't have to be perfect - even though I try! It's the time and love that goes into them that counts. If you took the time to find and purchase the gift, I feel that you should wrap it also. Finish the job!!!

i usually shop online and have them wrap
I can be expensive, but it saves me time
i'll probably just skip the wrapping this year and put them in gift bags.
enjoy your holiday

I am the same - I love wrapping gifts! Especially decorating them with impressive ribbons ...
It's also too expensive to pay other people to do something you enjoy...
Now if only I could start with the wrapping earlier - like not the day before Christmas :P

Depending if I have time or not. I try to do it myself. Because to make it look like I took the effort out of my busy life. I feel like sometime if you have someone to wrap it for you they might do a bad job or make it look so perfect. And then you get the most question and then you have to give credit to the store and not to yourself.
